Abstract

Isolated blunt traumatic injury to the submandibular gland is very rare. In the previous case reports, most patients with isolated submandibular gland injury had a good prognosis without any major complication. We report here a case of deep neck infection due to traumatic isolated submandibular gland fracture with computed tomogrphy findings.

둔상에 의한 턱밑샘의 단독 손상은 매우 드물며, 지금까지 보고된 대부분의 증례발표에서 턱밑샘 단독 손상은 좋은 경과를 보였다. 저자들은 턱밑샘 손상 후 심부 경부 감염이 합병된 증례를 진단에 사용된 컴퓨터단층촬영 영상소견을 중심으로 보고하고자 한다.
